It’s Spring Time!!!

What a great month we’ve had here at Twelve Baskets Food Pantry. I want to start out this month by inviting you to our up coming Annual Plant/Garden Sale Fundraiser on Saturday May, 18th from 9 am-3 pm. There will be tons of flowers, bushes, trees, annuals, perennials, soil, and lawn ornaments!!! We will have a yummy bake sale of Robin’s banana bread, cookies, rice crispy treats, and Heather’s Pies!!! We will also be accepting your nonperishable food and personal care donations as well!! For every personal care or food item that you bring to donate, we will give you a raffle ticket for your chance to win some pretty awesome prizes!!

We have had some really awesome donations come our way this past month. We got a whole cart of sliced turkey breasts from Arby’s on Shaver Road in Portage. We also got a cart full of dog and cat food from Paver Pet Supply and The Krugh Family was at it again with a generous back end full of yummy non perishables to donate too!!! We are so blessed for the continued support from our community helping in our mission to STOMP OUT HUNGER in our area.

We also had some giant donations this past month. One being an amazing donation of gift cards from Meijer on Shaver Road, which they had a fantastic sale that we took for granted and used some of those dollars to get those awesomely priced items. And the other big donation was from Pepsi !! A full pallet of orange juice!! Our clients loved that donation for sure!

We also had a bunch of donations from the Schoolcraft UMC !! Such great donations all around to fill the tummies of our neighbors right here in our community!!

 We also had the company of The Bridge Church helping us with distribution and The Dream Center who donated lots of Easter Baskets for the young children that came to Twelve Baskets Easter weekend.

  So much incredible things are continuing to happen here at Twelve Baskets Food Panty. Our biggest needs this month are personal care products. Mainly laundry soap and shampoo. Thank you for subscribing to our monthly newsletter. We hope to see you at the Annual Plant and Garden Sale Fundraiser this month!!! Take care and God Bless.
